Last weekend was like an early test of my faith. I suddenly got sick the day after I published my personal theme for 2016. I may be wrong, but I think I had a mild case of stomach flu because I had diarrhea and fever with muscle pain. The fever and muscle pain went away as soon as I took my first Tempra Forte tablet. The diarrhea, however, continued until Sunday night. I didn’t drink any medicine for it and just had a BRAT diet, replacing the apple sauce with real apples, haha. I also drank a few bottles of Gatorade.
I can’t thank the hubby enough for taking care of me. We drove in Bacoor on Friday night and I was already not feeling well. It could be something I ate that morning. Ang takaw-takaw ko kasi!
Because I was sick, we stayed home only. I slept and ate as much as I could to recover fast. Some morbid thoughts also entered my head. What if my diarrhea develops into something worse and I die? What will happen to my family? Will the hubby marry a new girl agad-agad? Hahaha. I guess it’s natural when people get sick. Or maybe, it’s just me.
I’m just so glad I’m okay now. I guess I really should take this health + wealth personal theme to heart. 🙂
May you choose happiness always,
It’s really disappointing when you’re sick. You wanted to do something but you can’t since you’re sick. Good thing is you’re already okay.
True. Thank you. 🙂
Being sick does bring out weird thoughts sometimes and we can’t really help it haha. Good to know that you recovered fast, Ms. Edel.
Thank you, Mylene! Weird thoughts, indeed. 🙂
I know what you mean how sickness brings morbid thoughts. Believe me, I’ve been there.
I’m glad you’re feeling much better now.
Thank you, Kayni. Now, I feel ashamed. There are people who have worse health problem than what I had last weekend…
Haha your thoughts are funny! But couldn’t agree more, health is wealth! At 26, I already feel all sorts of pain here and there. HUHU

Diba?! Hahaha. But then, there are people who are suffering from far worse than what I experienced last weekend, so dapat kumalma na ako. Same here, pain here and there and everywhere. Okay lang yan, hehe. 🙂
Nag kadiarrhea din ako nung 1st week of Jan. 2016. Super saklap at naging negatron din mga thoughts ko. Haha. Naglaklak din ako ng 3 gatorade para di ako madehydrate but para makasigurado nagpacheck-up pa rin ako sa gastroenterology doctor para malaman if ano talaga sakit ko. Hehe. It’s good to know na okay ka na now. Hehe.
Salamat, Cindy! Muntik na nga rin ako sumugod sa ER. Buti na lang weekend ako nadale, hindi weekday. 🙂
Hi Edel, happy new year! sorry for the late greetings. I was sick din habang winewelcome ang 2016 and up to now may konti pa akong ubo. it’s good to know that you are feeling better now. God bless. uyyy just want to share my theme for this year is Success 🙂
Thank you, Giday! Good to know okay na tayo pareho, hehe. Mahirap magkasakit, new year na new year pa naman. Success is a great theme. Push mo yan! 🙂
I had stomach flu last Sunday too! Missed work nung Monday kasi Tuesday was my friend’s wedding. Eh abay ako at si Skye. Kaya talagang nagpahinga ako. Uso ata talaga ang stomach flu sis. Hindi din ata fatal kasi buhay pa tayo. Hahahhaa! Adik ka! Natawa ako eh..
Hahaha, oo nga hindi naman pala fatal! Kalurkey! Adik talaga ako, sis, hehe. 🙂
“What if my diarrhea develops into something worse and I die? What will happen to my family? Will the hubby marry a new girl agad-agad?”
Tawang-tawa ako dito! Sowwweeeee.
Hope you’re feeling better na.
When my daughter dear had stomach flu back in April, sinabihan kami ng doctor na huwag Gatorade. Kasi daw, while mahusay na may electrolytes, it contains sugar, which can worsen the illness. But still, taking Gatorade is better than taking no liquid at all. Especially if liquid is going out both ways…
Hahahahaha. About Gatorade, buti sinabi mo yan, better to stick to water pala. Yes, back to normal na. Thank you, TPS! 🙂
Hope you are feeling better now 🙂 ako naman ang maysakit hahaha
Yes, okay na ako. Pagaling ka, Diane! 🙂
Parang hindi magandang pangitain, na sunod-sunod, halos magkakasabay, tayong nagkasakit ngayong bagong taon. 😮
Doble ingat na lang siguro tayo. 🙂
Agad agad? Relax lang! Haha.. But I do think about that too. Sabi ko kay Hubby mumultuhin ko sya pag nag-asawa sya agad! Haha Nat was sick too last weekend and her dad too the day after.. Looks like a virus is going around! Keep safe!
Haha, paranoid lang ang peg, sis. Get well to them! Yes, let’s keep safe always. 🙂
